Notes
- Ensure chicken breasts are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safety.
- Adjust sauce consistency by adding more milk gradually if too thick, or simmering uncovered to thicken if too thin.
- Sauté mushrooms separately until golden before adding them to the sauce for maximum flavor.
- Garnish with fresh parsley just before serving for added freshness and color.
- Customize seasoning to taste preferences, adjusting salt, pepper, and other spices accordingly.
